Here we go

15 minutes to go, I'll be taking you through the show, talk about the songs in the countdown, don't go off topic and most important of all, enjoy yourselves

Fast car at 6 :o

Does anyone want to do the countdown on here or should I give it a go?

I think that as long as united don't lose to chelsea they have it in the bag

That would be great, the problem is that the song is less than a year old and the charts company may not class that as a one hit wonder because it could be argued that the artists could still at some point in the future get another top 40 hit although I'm hoping that's not the case as I would love to see owl city there as well

As one of their bank holiday specials, BBC Radio 2 is counting down the 40 biggest one hit wonders in the UK tomorrow, information about the programme is listed in the link below: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b010mwjb They are classifying a one hit wonder as an artist who has had one hit in the top 40 and has never had any other top 40 singles.
